    On Webbed Monsters, Revolutionary Activists and Plutonium Glow: Eco-Crisis in Diane di Prima and Anne Waldman by Estíbaliz Encarnación-Pinedo

    Published 2020-12-01
    “…Focusing on works spanning four decades including <i>Revolutionary Letters</i> (1971), <i>Loba</i> (1998), <i>Uh Oh Plutonium</i> (1982) or <i>The Iovis Trilogy</i> (2011), to name a few, the article analyzes the poets’ use of utopian and dystopian images through which they develop a poetics of eco-crisis that opposes the conformism and political tension of the American postwar and its aftermath.…”

    Experimental validation of a nuclear forensics methodology for source reactor-type discrimination of chemically separated plutonium by Jeremy M. Osborn, Kevin J. Glennon, Evans D. Kitcher, Jonathan D. Burns, Charles M. Folden, III, Sunil S. Chirayath

    Published 2019-04-01
    “…An experimental validation of a nuclear forensics methodology for the source reactor-type discrimination of separated weapons-useable plutonium is presented. The methodology uses measured values of intra-element isotope ratios of plutonium and fission product contaminants. …”

    Validating plutonium-239+240 as a novel soil redistribution tracer – a comparison to measured sediment yield by K. Meusburger, P. Porto, P. Porto, J. Kobler Waldis, C. Alewell

    Published 2023-07-01
    “…<p>Quantifying soil redistribution rates is a global challenge addressed with direct sediment measurements (e.g. traps), models, and isotopic, geochemical, and radionuclide tracers. The isotope of plutonium, namely <span class="inline-formula"><sup>239+240</sup></span>Pu, is a relatively new soil redistribution tracer in this challenge. …”

    Plutonium mobility and reactivity in a heterogeneous clay rock barrier accented by synchrotron-based microscopic chemical imaging by U. Kaplan, S. Amayri, J. Drebert, D. Grolimund, T. Reich

    Published 2024-02-01
    “…To assess the performance of such barriers over extended time scales, mechanistic information on the interaction between the radiotoxic, long-lived radionuclides like plutonium and the host rock is essential. Chemical imaging based on synchrotron microspectroscopic techniques was used to visualize undisturbed reactive transport patterns of Pu within pristine Opalinus Clay rock material. …”
